Ruby Rock-It Guest Designer | Rose Cluster Downloadable Cut File

Hello everyone! I'm excited to share that I'm guest designing with Ruby Rock-It this month. They sent me the super cute and fun Happy Days collection to create with. Today, I'm sharing the two scrapbook page I created for my guest post and that were up on the Ruby Rock-It blog yesterday.

For my first layout, I wanted to keep the focus on the photo of my niece on the day of her First Communion. I went with a rather simple design and created a small cluster of embellishments from the Happy Days collection. I felt like the layout still needed something to balance it, so I created a digital cut file called Rose Cluster. The floral design of the die cut mimicked the flowers in the collection and by cutting it from white cardstock and placing it behind the photo and embellishment cluster, it helped to balance the placement of the photo and to draw your eye to the photo.

For my second layout, I was inspired to create a quilt like pattern because of the Happy Days Patchwork paper. I simply cut four squares from the paper and stitched around each square to further enhance the "quilt" like feel. I then centered my photo in the middle of the squares and added some of the fabulous Happy Days embellishments. I especially loved the die cuts with glitter on them!

I hope you enjoy the downloadable digital cut file - Rose Cluster - that I shared with you today and the projects that I created as part of my guest post with Ruby Rock-it! I also want to thank Ruby Rock-It for having me as a Guest Designer!

I have just discovered your site. Thank you so much for the fabulous cut files! I was so happy to discover someone who makes things that aren't "cutesie" . Seems to be a very popular style, but not mine.
